When to Choose Microsoft Teams
Microsoft 365 organizations that want deeply integrated collaboration with enterprise-grade security and AI
Microsoft Teams is the obvious choice for M365 organizations. The collaboration depth is unmatched — chat, files, meetings, and apps all live in one place. Copilot AI is powerful but expensive as an add-on. For non-Microsoft shops, the value proposition weakens significantly.
Strengths
- Deepest Microsoft 365 integration — seamless with Outlook, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Office apps
- Copilot AI provides meeting recaps, action items, and intelligent search across all Teams content
- Exceptional enterprise security with HIPAA, SOC 2, FedRAMP, and data residency controls
- Free tier includes 100 participants and 60-minute group meetings
Limitations
- Copilot requires separate $30/user/mo add-on — not included in base plans
- Interface can feel complex and overwhelming for non-Microsoft shops
- Performance can be resource-heavy on older hardware
When to Choose Zoho Meeting
Zoho ecosystem users and budget-conscious small businesses that need reliable, affordable video meetings
Zoho Meeting is the ultimate budget pick at $1/host/mo. If you're already in the Zoho ecosystem, it integrates beautifully with CRM, Projects, and other Zoho apps. The complete lack of AI features is a significant gap in 2026, but for basic meetings at an unbeatable price, it delivers.
Strengths
- Incredibly affordable at $1/host/mo — the cheapest paid option in our roundup
- Deep integration with the Zoho ecosystem of 35+ business apps
- Free tier supports 10 participants for 60-minute meetings
- Clean, straightforward interface with low learning curve
Limitations
- No AI features — no transcription, summaries, or intelligent automation
- Limited functionality outside the Zoho ecosystem
- Basic video quality and collaboration tools compared to market leaders
